Vermicompost produced from sugarcane bagasse (SBV) or sawdust (S) were substituted at a range of different concentration in soilless bedding plant container medium, as a peat: vermiculite: perlite (6:3:1), to evaluate their effects on the growth of Dieffenbachia amoena in the greenhouse. Dieffenbachia amoena was grown in container medium PE: VE: P (6:3:1), in that peat substituted with 0%, 10%,...

heavy metals are considered one of the most important environmental pollution and are dissolved form or adsorbed to the suspended solides in the urban storm runoffs and infiltratire ponds. in this article the heavy metals of urban storm runoff and sediments of infiltration pond in shiraz city have been investigated. the results show different pollutions in the urban storm runoffs such as dissol...

The objective of this research is to lift the dormancy seeds S. kunthianum in with a view domesticating them. In experiment we used soaking sulfuric acid for different durations (10 min, 30 min and 1 h). treated were sown transparent germinators. explants obtained then transplanted into pots containing five types substrate (black earth, fine sand, sawdust, mixtures 1/1 sawdust/black earth sawdu...

Abstract The goal of this study was to determine the capacity Pleurotus spp. lignocellulosome transform frequent pomiculture residues (grapevine-, plum-, and raspberry sawdust) into raw materials for biotechnological processes. All three lignocellulosics induced synthesis ligninolytic cellulolytic enzymes in tested species. Laccase dominant cocktail, with a maximum activity 40,494.88 U L ?1 obs...

The dry washing method is an alternative to replace water washing, thereby reducing the negative impacts of contamination. However, commercial adsorbents come from industrial processes that, due their composition, may not be such a sustainable resource in global biodiesel production process. In this study, use organic residues, as sawdust, coconut fiber, nutshell, rice husk, and hyacinth were p...

A fundamental study of the characteristics of a sludge refuse-derived fuel (RDF) and the combustion behaviors were done. The test data demonstrate good results for the development of energy recovery technology of organic sludge or waste. The ash deposit formation propensity has been based on pretreatment, temperature and the ratio of organic sludge to sawdust. The usage of organic sludge and wa...

Mice were used as quality control for functional assays, in order to discriminate between daily variability and true differences between dolphins analyzed at different times. Female B6C3F1 mice (M. musculus; Charles River Laboratories, MA) that were approximately 30 days-old were maintained at 18-26°C with relative humidity between 40 and 70%, and a light/dark cycle at 12h intervals. Animals we...
